Dwyer played 35 games: 2 in 2009, 18 in 2010, 15 in 2011. He debuted at 20 years, 5 months, 7 days of age.

What I will say about Siro in comparison to Dwyer is that he has only had 1 consistent stint and that was for a team who ran second-last. Dwyer came to prominence in a team that made the semis 2 years running.

You have Curtis' debut age wrong, he is only 20 now. Turns 21 later this month. (Born July '83)
He is currently roughly the age that Dwyer was when he debuted.

He needs time to learn and get used to his new position. We will see more aggression in his game the more he plays this position. He's a skilful player and has a good head on him too. He will be very good for us, just needs some time to adjust. Dwyer was a very good player and a hard hitter. Unfortunately injury struck and we never got to see the best of him.

the reason im comparing is to just mention that even someone as highly rated by us as dwyer was criticised in his first few performances.

Sorry; rugby league project has his DOB as 1991, if it is 1993 then it's obviously 2 years older.

Would have made his debut at 18 Years, 9 Months, 26 Days, so yes, almost 2 years younger than Dwyer on debut.
